General PaperGeneral English

The English paper will be designed to test general understanding of English and everyday use of

words. .

General Knowledge

General Knowledge including knowledge of current events and matters of every dayobservation and experience. The knowledge of scientific aspects of everyday life is expected at

the level of an educated person. The paper will also include questions on History of India and

Geography of a nature which the candidate should be able to answer without special study.
